Cage is technically required at 9.99, but I’m trying to hold off on that if possible. This is a street truck before a race truck, and it’s not safe to drive on the street with a cage and no helmet. Most of our private track rentals and events are lenient on that, so I’m just going to have to see...
50BMG...
I have yet to do a full wide open throttle launch, so I’m not sure if it’s going to hook when I try. Rear suspension is nothing fancy. Just a 6” rear drop with Core4x4 control arms, and Viking shocks. Tires are 315/60/15 drag radials.
Smooth Boost is installed, but the only time I have ever used it was when I was purposely trying to make low power pulls to test changes to the truck. Otherwise, it stays turned up to 100% 'cause I like to party...haha.
Last dyno I posted was 1046hp when we were maxing out the ID1050...
I'm too scared to do that. It has to be pushing $60-$70K. I dont cut corners on anything, so I have spent much more than most would have to in order to achieve the same result. I'm also picky about appearance, so I have done a lot of cosmetic upgrades as well...Sport Hood, Custom Headlight...
Thank you guys. Finally made a decent pass at the new power level, and we did this with the truck in complete street trim...4930lbs with driver. Drove it an hour and 30 minutes to the track, raced it, and then drove 40 minutes to another local track to help a customer dial in his newly cammed...
I'm maxed out now with a 2.75" upper pulley. My IAT's are already climbing up to about 155* in the 1/8th, so I'm not sure how much more boost I could throw at it before it just starts building more heat and less power.
Here is a little track update from Sunday night. Ran a new best in the 1/8th of 6.54 @ 108.88mph and beat a bolt on and tuned Charger Hellcat in the process.
Video is posted on the Moe’s Performance Facebook page. Hemifever made a tune tweak for me this evening, and we are shooting for 10.1-10.2 tomorrow.
Best part is that I drove it 1.5 hours to the track and another 1.5 hours back home. Success.
E85 runs cooler, and is a fraction of the cost of race fuel. This truck is not a trailer queen and will be driven to and from the track. Race fuel is over $10/gallon here where E85 is less than $3/gallon.
